Anouk McGregor is the daughter of the Trainspotting actor, Ewan McGregor, and his former wife, Eve Mavrakis. She is the fourth child and the youngest daughter of McGregor, an actor who in recent times, gained quite the media attention for his relationship with the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World actress, Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
Ewan McGregor is a father of five including Anouk. He was in a long relationship with the mother of his four daughters, Eve; from the mid-’90s to the late 2010s. She is a French-born production designer who has worked behind the projects of movies such as Lock, Stock, And Two Smoking Barrels.
There are a handful of questions regarding McGregor’s daughters – from the eldest to the youngest.

“I knew right then that I really wanted to be with her,”
